                           VOTE EXPLANATIONS

  Mr. TESTER. Mr. President, last night my flight to Washington was 
diverted to Columbus, OH, due to bad weather. As a result, I missed 
rollcall vote No. 163, to invoke cloture on the motion to concur with 
House amendment No. 2 to the Senate amendments to the housing bill. Had 
I been present, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, last night, due to weather delays and an 
unexpected flight diversion to Columbus, OH, I missed the rollcall vote 
concerning cloture on the motion to concur with House amendment No. 2 
to the Senate amendments to the housing bill, H.R. 3221. Had I been
